Terms of Use

Version 2 · Last updated: 4 October 2026

Welcome to Raqsly ("Raqsly", "we", "us"), an online platform operated from the Arab Republic of Egypt where belly dancers share their work, build a professional profile, and receive booking requests. By creating an account or using Raqsly, you agree to these Terms, our Privacy Policy and our Community Guidelines. If you do not agree, please do not use Raqsly.

1. Who can use Raqsly

• You must be at least 18 years old. We ask for your date of birth when you sign up, and we remove accounts that belong to minors.
• You must give accurate information and keep your password safe. You are responsible for activity on your account. Tell us at support@raqsly.com if you think someone else has accessed it.
• You may not create multiple accounts to evade a restriction or suspension, or use someone else's account.
• You must follow the laws that apply to you, including the laws of Egypt.

2. The service

• Raqsly is currently free to use. If we introduce paid features, we will explain the price and terms before you pay anything.
• We may change, add or remove features. If a change significantly affects you, we will tell you in advance where reasonably possible.

3. Your content

• You keep ownership of the videos, images and text you post ("Content").
• You may only post Content you own or have the right to publish. A video on Raqsly must belong to the person who posts it. You may not post another dancer's performance, even with credit.
• You can post a video only from a TikTok or YouTube account you have verified on Raqsly, and only if that account published it. Videos play through the platforms' official players and remain subject to their terms; if a video is removed there, it stops playing here.
• You give Raqsly a worldwide, non-exclusive, royalty-free licence to host, display, reproduce and distribute your Content only to operate, improve and promote the service (for example, showing your public profile in search results). This licence ends when you delete the Content or your account, except for copies kept for legal reasons or in backups for a limited time.
• You are responsible for your Content and confirm that it does not infringe anyone's rights or break any law.

4. What is not allowed

You must not post or do anything that breaks our Community Guidelines, including nudity or sexual content, content involving anyone under 18, harassment or hate, impersonation, sharing other people's private information, spam or scams, offering services other than dance, or anything illegal. You also must not:

• try to access other people's accounts or data, or our systems, without permission;
• scrape, copy or collect data from Raqsly by automated means without our written permission;
• interfere with the security or normal operation of the service.

5. Copyright and other rights

If you believe Content on Raqsly infringes your copyright, image rights or other rights (for example, someone posted your performance), report it in the app with the reason "Not their video", or email support@raqsly.com with: a link to the Content, a description of your right, your contact details, and a statement that the information is accurate. We remove infringing Content and may close the accounts of repeat infringers.

6. Verification and badges

We may verify ownership of social accounts and grant a verification or "Founding Dancer" badge. A badge confirms account ownership and status only. It is not an endorsement of the dancer or a guarantee of any service.

7. Bookings

• Raqsly lets clients (with or without an account) send booking requests to dancers. Guests must confirm their email first. The dancer answers each request once; any further contact happens outside Raqsly.
• Any agreement, price, payment or performance is between the dancer and the client. Raqsly is not a party to it, does not take payments, and is not responsible for whether it is carried out, unless and until we introduce in-platform payments under separate terms.
• Contact details received through a request may be used only for that booking.
• Be careful: never pay in advance unless you trust the arrangement, and meet in safe, public or professional settings. Report anything suspicious.

8. Moderation and enforcement

• We review content with automated tools and human moderators. We may hide or remove Content, mark videos as sensitive (they are hidden while Safe Mode is on, which is the default), issue warnings, and suspend or close accounts that break these Terms or the law.
• When we act on your Content or account, we tell you in the app which rule applies (a "statement of reasons").
• Appeals: you can appeal any decision within 30 days by emailing support@raqsly.com. A person who did not make the first decision will review it and reply, normally within 14 days.
• We may act immediately and without warning for serious violations (for example, content involving minors, sexual services, trafficking, or credible threats), and we may report illegal content to the competent authorities.

9. Reporting and blocking

You can report any video, comment, account or booking request from inside Raqsly. Reports are confidential. Anyone, including people without an account, can also report illegal content by emailing support@raqsly.com with a link and an explanation. You can block any account.

10. Ending your account

• You can delete your account at any time from your account settings or at raqsly.com/delete-account. Deletion removes your profile and Content; see the Privacy Policy for details.
• We may suspend or close your account if you seriously or repeatedly break these Terms, if the law requires it, or to protect users. Where appropriate, we will tell you why.

11. Disclaimers

Raqsly is provided "as is" and "as available". We work hard to keep it safe and running, but we do not guarantee that it will always be available or error-free, or that Content posted by users is accurate or lawful. Users are responsible for their own Content and bookings.

12. Limitation of liability

To the maximum extent permitted by law, Raqsly is not liable for indirect, incidental or consequential losses (such as lost profits or lost bookings), or for Content posted by users or agreements made between users. Nothing in these Terms excludes liability that cannot be excluded by law, such as liability for fraud or gross negligence, or limits rights you have under mandatory consumer law.

13. Your responsibility to us

If you break these Terms or the law and that causes a claim against Raqsly, you agree to cover the reasonable costs of that claim, to the extent permitted by law.

14. Governing law and disputes

These Terms are governed by the laws of the Arab Republic of Egypt. Before going to court, please contact us at support@raqsly.com so we can try to resolve the issue amicably. Any dispute that cannot be resolved this way will be decided by the competent courts of Cairo, Egypt. If you are a consumer living in another country, this does not take away the protection of the mandatory laws of your country or your right to go to your local courts where that law allows it.

15. General

• If any part of these Terms is found invalid, the rest remains in force.
• These Terms are available in Arabic and English. If there is a conflict between the versions, the Arabic version prevails.
• We may update these Terms. If a change is significant, we will notify you in the app or by email before it takes effect. If you keep using Raqsly after that, you accept the new Terms.
